+This extension module allows to use an ssh connection to perform distributed
+copy and installation of rpm packages over a network.
To use this module, edit /etc/urpmi/parallel.cfg and add an alias line as
follows :
<name>:ssh:<node list separated by ':'>
or
<name>:ssh(<default media>):<node list separated by ':'>
-where <name> is the "alias name" parameter of --parallel options of the
- urpm* tools,
- <default media> is the default --media parameter for this alias,
- <node list separated by ':'> is a list of nodes (network hosts),
- for example "node1:node2: ...:nodeN".
+where:
+ <name> is the "alias name" parameter of --parallel options of the
+ urpm* tools,
+ <default media> is the default --media parameter for this alias,
+ <node list separated by ':'> is a list of nodes (network hosts),

+
+You can specify 'localhost' as a node name if you want to include
+the server in the list of machines to be upgraded.
